    Yeah, he needs to learn that its against animal cruelty laws to use a feline as a substitute football to kick a field goal. If that ever happened on the field during any football game, that would most likely end up being instant disqualification for the penalty.

    I read about enough as I could stomach, and I saw the thing about the fire. I had to nope out after that.

    Do we know if the poor cat made it after all of this abuse? Was it possible someone rescued it? I want to believe :(

    That poor cat, lit on fire after that. Are we sure that’s enough time? This is some psychopath level abuse of an animal, don’t lose track of these people when they leave prison.

        This was my thought as well. People who go out of their way to abuse animals typically wind up doing something worse later.

      Probably not, explicitly because the charge only applied to the kicking.

      They could get longer if they find out who lit it on fire.

    Someone else, whose identity was not known when the case was presented to a grand jury, poured an accelerant on the cat and set it on fire, the indictment against Williams says. The animal running away on fire was also recorded on video.

    Two psychos

    What the fuck is wrong with people. I’m very against violence but I believe in violence if I see someone torturing a helpless animal.

      In prison people fucking hate you if you hurt, women, animals, or children.

      Otherwise they don’t really give a shit. According to a friend who served 15, murderers are kind of respected. And anyone who’se killed police is treated very well.

        Yeah, and a lot of the guys in there, that get all bent out of shape about things like hurting women, and children, have long DV records. It is more a way of creating a caste system than most of these people actually giving a shit.
